Technical note: Defining cyclotron based clinical scanning proton machines in a FLUKA Monte Carlo system

<strong>Purpose</strong> Cyclotron-based pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton machines represent nowadays the majority and most affordable choice for proton therapy facilities, however their representation in Monte Carlo (MC) codes is more complex than passively scattered proton system or s...
